Thank you so much!The hat is basically just 4 square pieces sewn together and decorated. The pants is made from a pattern from 1950 that my grandmother gave to me, but I don't have the pattern scanned. It's just a normal pair of pants though with some extra space on the thighs

Itīs amazing!!!! Totaly worthy getting into finals, itīs perfect costume. Not to mention that you did it completely yourself. Great work. Iīm sure that it took a lot of time, but seeing you on that stage, with lights behind, I can tell that it was very well spent timeI love how accurate Italyīs uniform looks here, itīs simply cool.

- Yes I made the cosplay myself- I made it with fabric and a sewing machin, good patterns and a lot of time, practice and patience- I bought the boots from taobao, the gloves and belt from a local store, the lenses from pinkyparadise and the wig from ebay, oh and the crop from a store selling horse and riding-equipment.- No I didn't pay anything for the set, because the photo was taken during a cosplaycompetition.- I don't know exactly what camera as it belongs to my brother, but I know it's a Nikon DSLR type.- To plan a photoshoot you just have to find someone that wants to take a photo of you, and a location, and.. done. I usually find a costume and a location first, and then ask my friends or family, and the poses are just improvised. - The men in the background are the commentators, they tell the audience who I am, what I'm cosplaying and stuff like that.

So this is NOT from a photoshoot, but from a cosplaycompetition, that's why I'm on a stage and there's people in the background with a microphone
